Greetings from Las Vegas
G
Or so the postcard said
F C
Lipstick on a coffee cup blood red
C
These little memories like cinders
G
Have kept him warm for years
F C
>From the fire he remembered they're now souvenirs
Am F C
She shined like a diamond burned like a fever
Am F G F
But he was a classic runner a common deceiver
C F C
But the flame that she sparked rose just high enough
G F C G F C
To keep him sifting through the ashes of old love
C
There's an eight by ten reminder
G
On the table by the bed
F
Perfume on the pillow
C
Where she laid her head
C
There ain't nothing colder
G
Than a young mans foolish pride
F
Words left unsaid that smolder
C
Down deep inside
Am F C
She shined like a diamond burned like a fever
Am F G F
But he was a classic runner a common deciever
C F C
But the flame that she sparked rose just high enough
G F C G F C
To keep him sifting through the ashes of old love
